Pet peeve...

Why do all the reference books and articles include New Jersey as a state that allows concealed carry?!?! :fire: It does not in any shape or form allow it. We will be leaving as soon as we are able, and a large part of the equation is this issue...don't even get me started on the tax and corruption issues :mad:

With rare exceptions, politics is corrupt. You'll find it in every state. I believe the more the state is a nanny state, the more sheeple. And of course they still thinkd they are doinf their patriotic duty to vote, even if willfully uninformed Good luck on a new home and what ever it is you are seeking.

If you think NJ is bad then don't come to Illinois!!

So how accurate are these sites concerning NJ?

I ask because I use them from time to time for checking reciprocity.

I feel for you. If I lived in a state that didn't allow it, I would do my best to fight for my rights. Apply for a permit and demand a written rejection. Write your congressman. Bring a case to court. Put up a web site to raise funds to push a case through the courts: I bet a lot of like-minded folks would be glad to contribute.

I would consider a place without concealed carry a place that I couldn't live.

Do what I did. Move across the Delaware to Pennsylvania. Very good gun laws for concealed carry.

Technically speaking, NJ is a "May Issue" state. However, they who decide who "may" carry are arbitrary, and typically will say NO to just about everyone except LEO.
